Rashad Johnson was already a quality player in 2007, before getting lots of recognition in 2008.

Marquis Johnson, on the other hand, was pretty much an afterthought his first three years. He played sparingly until his senior year, until he came into his own against South Carolina that season. He played strong down the stretch. It was enough to get drafted by the Lions.
